went on wednesday the army took over across the bridge those who want to be reinstated both sides are talking wall i want to say to the american states and to the wallet to the whole wall and to the west to europe be careful if you joy that out of me there gyptian out of me or the head of the egyptian army to destroy the islamist that means that your turn in this country to up ways that will produce a lot of islamists i there's a strong feeling of deja vu after just a year in office the muslim brotherhood leaders have joined it peter sr in prison president hosni mubarak both now sitting in the same jail. america's betting on a losing horse by selling out to the islamists where is the america that calls for freedom why have they allowed this to happen does freedom mean shutting down islamic t.v. channels does it mean shutting down use papers minima hair watches events unfold from his balcony this cup question lives in an apartment overlooking tahrir square

he says it's now each option pitted against egypt. this is something that completes the first evolution. official position was incomplete by having. the military taking control of the country for more than a year and then. using that democracy in a very bad way by giving. the country to the muslim brotherhood which. the worst people to be told the country this is a matter of the and i would like you to join me in our journeys through time travel back in time travel to unravel discoveries discover evolution that made egypt and the element that made egypt a revolution of a fluid city because one of the few taking advantage of the constant turmoil he offers foreign tourists of the r.p. revolutionary to a it includes a quick look at a few well the mostly through the cars window and now i'm so well spoken thanks to

that evolution i used to stammer and stutter and flounder now you see my speech flows like a mighty stream momos like british people but most tourists are staying away while the country plummets unemployment's up and the egyptian pound is fast losing its already weakened value as supporters on both sides brace for more confrontations many fear the situation will only go from bad to worse policy r.t. . and while the situation in egypt remains a polarized the military has come together with politicians in an effort to form an interim government middle east analysts nabila ramdani believes that the army in egypt is a fall too involved in the politics of the country. i don't believe that that's how you bring about democracy and in fact what the army is is showing at the moment is that it's reasserting its position as a political king maker indeed choosing a compliant figures who could you know who they could put in power so as to

preserve their own interests and that's why we're seeing how they are delivering now a ready made interim government essentially manufacturing democracy but of course democracy is about the will of the people and the people have spoken last year and that's precisely why the muslim brotherhood supporters are calling for the president to be reinstated and so diligent to see of the people to be restricted but he has also to be highlighted that the major failure of the army here is to protect civilian lives that the number one duty instead of interfering in political affairs and indeed one has to highlight the fact that they have a major stake in the economy something that they are unlikely to give up anytime soon. his current correspondent caught up with the former head of the arab league lose now one of the top opposition figures in egypt. told why he believes that the army kicking the president out of office is not necessarily a. security forces the armed forces are trying to maintain law and order in the

streets going forward in a solid way that would allow the country to be. to get back on track but moments after the ouster of mohamed morsy we had reports of hundreds of missing budget officials who were arrested the president himself was put under house arrest with no communication t.v. networks were shut down people are calling this a military coup how can you defend that everybody saw millions of people pouring into the streets so it was not a coup it was a popular uprising if not a revolution that is not enough to have the ballot box approving you and then you just sit and enjoy your life and let the people go down the drain i don't know how some people in and. out or from certain way of thinking believe that democracy is just the box of the ever got the majority over there has

the right to do or not to do anything how can you include the missing brotherhood and its political parties like the freedom and justice party in the political roadmap of egypt if their leaders of being arrested egypt is and in. an unprecedented exceptional circumstances some precautionary measures would be taken but i hope at the end it is for the us and the rule of law that would please. venezuela says it's still waiting to hear if edward snowden who will take up its asylum often as the monday deadline that said by caracas approaches as one of the three eleven american countries alongside bolivia and make our well free to help the man who exposed the u.s. government's global surveillance web of the leaders of the three nations say the decision to help the former n.s.a. contractor is prompted by washington is

a heavy handed manhunt archies and now it has more. i think snowden song goes by says up with a latin american twist a glimmer of hope after living in limbo for weeks then as well as nicaragua and bolivia offered the n.s.a. leaker asylum after european countries rejected his official request for most of the week if snowden himself didn't know where his future would be taking him then we certainly didn't and this really it was thought ecuador might be a possibility but president gray is sentiment toward snowden shifted suddenly saying their help with initial transport documents was a mistake then as well as my dural made his country stands clear this weekend saying snowden can come and live in the land of chavez quote away from the persecution of american imperialism but only after bolivia's ever morale us was detained and denied airspace over europe for some fourteen hours while his

presidential plane was searched for snowden in an exclusive interview with our team around reacted to what bolivia called a kidnapping is huge and they think they can humiliate and subdue us by blackmailing us and dictate their own terms like they did before making us change our policies they're wrong we'll make our own decisions and they can't pressure us into doing what they want. latin america united with their condemnation social media rock did with claims the u.s. was behind the move and europe a puppet washington remain silent they have made a serious mistake because this is just one more example of the way things are going to be not only throughout latin america but throughout the world already where you have powerful hegemonic totally disrespectful towards the national sovereignty of all countries even their allies snowden's leaks help reveal how the u.s.

was cold war style tapping their closest e.u. partners even when you expose the truth even when you give it this truth to the people who are being spied on they won't step up and support truth so yeah it is a bit frustrating to see these european nations just kind of ignore this outright spying that's out there while searching for snowden at all cost and he's now r.t. moscow the most recent revelation to emerge from snowden's disclosures to suggest a e.u. states enjoy a closer relationship with the n.s.a. than many would like to admit in an interview published in the dispy a hell of the whistleblower alleges that the n.s.a. is embedded with germany and most other western states regarding secret surveillance operations he also says that the partnership is structured to protect top level politicians from any backlash should a word that of the collusion between spy agencies ever get out and the revelations run contrary to berlin show of surprise at the scale of u.s. electronics newbridge away the chancellor merkel accusing the u.s.

of using tactics from the cold war journalist manual often writer says the outrage of german politicians has been sponsored by the spying but because it is now all out in the open. they are angry that it came to public that not all the facts are that the citizens can see what is going on because i wouldn't believe any right now or a government politician by the way on oppositional politician the driven parliament and when we listen very well to. the mainstream politicians in germany we are right now all of. this let us say co-operation how they call it they say it's for our security they say that this is a partnership that this is a friendship but of course it's not it's pure spying and we have to watch a little bit bank in the past we had in the one thousand nike's that. it was also

it was. in europe especially in germany and this was especially for economy and spew and german companies the german economy was. higher in the u.s. secret service so what we see here is that germany has behaved the moralists like well let me say like a state fully on the profile of the u.s. without any independence and the scandal it's not just that you are doing this the scandal is that the german politics are not doing something against them and. now if you're looking for the latest updates on edward snowden or mystic key development over the past few days we've got all of it for you on our web site check out our timeline on our t.v. dot com where you'll get more complete with fresh updates opinions and plenty more . coming up for you a new diet for you or bridge and urges the e.u.

force feeding the u.s. government has defended the practice in the face of criticism from human rights groups is our chief washington correspondent damage again takes up the story. the u.n. cost to the u.s. to stop force feeding guantanamo hunger strikers the practice is against international law and is seen by many as a form of torture and here is what we first the guards strapped edited down to a chair like this one then they put a mask over his face so that the detainee can't move bite or spit when the nurse snakes the feeding tube into a nasal cavity the feeding tube which is roughly the size of a pen and ink cartridge or this or this is not an actual feeding tube. it gives you an idea and this area is very rich in nerve endings and patients report extreme pain during the procedure and the nurse pushes the tube further down the throat creating a tightness that makes breathing difficult at that point patients typically feel pressure on their chest and long some say it feels like they were drowning then the

staff taped the troop to the detainees nose so that they can bite or swallow it and then two cans of nutritional substances are being funneled through the tube now we wrote to guantanamo and asked whether they use an anesthetic for this seemingly painful procedure here's the response typically not however it is available if the detainees request that most attorneys prefer to use standard all of oral to lubricate the to us of us are trying to make it sound like it's not as bad but here is how one of the detainees a yemeni man somewhere nadji all house on the bell describes what force feeding actually feels like i will never forget the first time they passed a feeding tube up my nose i can't describe how painful it is to be force fed this way as it was thrust it made me feel like throwing up i wanted to vomit but i couldn't there was getting in my chest throat and stomach i had never experienced

such pain before i would not wish this cruel punishment upon anyone we also asked the kuantan official how many detainees resist the procedure and how many give their consent to it and he went back saying the majority of the detainees report compliantly and do not resist detainees are given a choice to eat a hot meal drink the liquid new trend or be enthralled fed the detainee see the choice differently take a listen. when they come to force me into the chair if i refuse to be tied up they call that. so i have no choice either i can exercise my right to protest my detention and be beaten up or i can submit to pay in full force feeding for most people these detainees are. out of sight out of mind as sudden as it is they see physical suffering as the only way to draw the world's attention to their plight we can't hear their voices but here's what they write i'm doing this because i want to know my destiny i cannot abide not knowing anymore i just hope that because of the

pain we are suffering the eyes of the world will once again look to guantanamo before it is too indefinite detention is the worst form of torture respect us or kill us it's your choice the u.s. must take off its mask and kill us the obama administration doesn't want inmates to die but neither is it in a rush to give the detainees their lives back in washington i'm going to check on from a one ton i'm a prisoner wants them back says they every detainee at the facility is being tortured in a one way or another. i say that everybody who had been held in total has been tortured tortured or abused in one way i mean when i was first taken into custody it was the most torturous process i think that any person could ever imagine meant being stripped naked it meant being invasively your body begins to cavity searches as they call it being shaved of being punched and kicked in spots upon. one occasion it was in the bathroom facility before i went to what. i was subjected to

sounds a woman screaming those look to believe was my wife being tortured so everybody in a sense is being tortured in the worst sort the cause is the psychological support in which she was in solitary confinement other people to know what it is that you've done for which you're paying the ultimate price which is your freedom if the hunger strikes continue in the way that they are then the force feeding is not the solution the solution is to give them justice and that's the reason why they're doing it they're not doing it because of all the abuses those of peripheral they're doing it because of health of a twelve years they're almost without charge or trial and any move legal normative system. little. longer. let's not take a look at what online team have picked up today turns out to be too hard for some russian train tracks led where parents who want to buy the head from a fun site of the tragedy by waving

are said to have banned such foods now usually associated with staple crops like corn and rice it's not possible to find g.m. in meat milk as well as chocolate around ninety percent of all biotech seeds are owned by the us a giant i'm own son to which is accused of stifling small businesses and even farmers get ruined and some even go as far as committing suicide meanwhile concerns remain over the potential health risks of genetically doctored food ranging from allergies she means system deficiencies leading to death . has more on the story. it's controversial but britain's environment secretary says that the public should embrace genetically modified food is a hard sell their campaign is say it's dangerous to human health whereas the scientific community supports the technology and if it is as safe as they and the government are sure it is and the argument for g.m.

food is quite compelling it would allow farmers to grow crops in tough conditions and thus help to feed hungry mouths around the world the u.s. and brazil already must have produces of the stuff and the british government says the u.k. shouldn't be getting left behind to talk more about this i'm joined by dr robert he's the founder of the alliance for natural health which campaigns against g.m. foods. there are a billion hungry mouths in the world and we're being told that this technology is safe shouldn't we embrace it in that case well if you look at all the real developments in raising eels it hasn't actually occurred through g.m. it's occurred through conventional breeding practices and we know that the european authorities have probably one of the most comprehensive evaluation systems compared with other parts of the world but only two crops have actually got through the net for cultivation over fifty have been approved for consumption but of course the majority of it is given to animals and not to humans what are the risks in this

case how is it dangerous to human health there's been a lot of g.m. produced of course a large amount of it going to animals but the u.s. population has been eating a lot of g.m. corner a lot of g.m. soy and they say well we can't see the effect we believe looking at humans as guinea pigs is not a great way of doing it particularly given the fact that we're only looking at really one or two generations of exposure why is the government so keen to develop this technology in that case and who would be benefiting from it if they did there are about a half a dozen companies that are the key players in this areas of which monsanto is the biggest and they've been putting huge pressure on governments they're all doing that the biggest problem is concentrating the agricultural reese. souls and particularly seed supply in the hands of a few companies and these companies have a lot of sway with the major governments in the world including the u.k. government many thanks for your comments was one environmental group said the british government's attempt to get g.m. food back on the menu is like flogging

a dead horse and despite any of the scientific arguments for it one thing that you come to you with is that g.m. food just doesn't have a good. it's months showed that only twenty one percent of the u.k. population supports the technology pretty boy r.t. london. now to some other news making headlines around the world u.s. officials are saying that the boeing triple seven that crash landed at san francisco airport was descending at a dangerously low speed today also reveal that the pilots are trying to abort the landing just moments before crashing all but two people survived out of the three hundred seven passengers and crew on board the asiana airlines flight from south korea and investigation into the possibility that one of those who died was run over by a rescue crew vehicle is now under way. canadian officials there say five people have been killed by a fright train explosion in combat and dozens more are said to be missing after the blast which caused devastation in the town of them
